Hollywood actor Liam Neeson has revealed that he is romantically involved with an ‘incredibly famous’ woman and is already planning a Valentine’s Day surprise for her.

The star, famous for roles in blockbusters such as Taken, Batman Begins and Love Actually, spoke about his blossoming new relationship in an interview with the Irish Independent – but didn’t reveal the mystery lady’s name.

He said: ‘I’d embarrass her if I said her name, she’s incredibly famous. I’ll have to do my best for her. It’s amazing how far a simple bunch of freshly picked flowers will go in a lady’s life, I find.’

Neeson’s wife of 14 years, Natasha Richardson, passed away in 2009 following a tragic skiing accident. The couple had two sons together – Michael, 20 and Daniel, 19.

Admitting that the grief remains with him seven years on, Neeson added: ‘You do your best.I had many little letters, beautiful little cards scrawled from people after her death. I still have them and they are very meaningful. It is really touching.

‘In your soul you know that there are people out there caring for you. That means a hell of a lot to me.’

Neeson dated publicist Freya Johnston for two years, but they split in 2012.

Neeson has numerous roles in the pipeline, including parts in upcoming movies Felt and Operation Chromite.
